Thanks for telling me about this ng! I thought "free uk gardening" was the
only gardening ng.!!
Can someone please tell my why my tulips won't flower? I was told told to
put them in the fridge for a few weeks before planting them, which I did (
only to lose one , which someone chopped up, thinking it was an onion!); but
they still won't flower. Any hints?

Helen, are you posting from Australia? If so, it might be worth your while
emailing a company like Blooms at Bressingham to ask them for advice on
planting in your climate. They have a lot of bulbs from van Tubergen, an
excellent Dutch bulb supplier. http://www.bressinghamgardens.com/
